anybody have a guess what the attendance was?

small, very small, probably around 150 maybe 200, just a guess though, place holds around 1000 people.

What\'s the most the guys have pulled into the Webster? I would think it costs them quite a bit to put on a show there. If only 2 or 300 people are showing up in a place w/ that much capacity I would think they lose $$$$ and it sure does not look good to be pulling such a small crowd in their homestate. hmmmmmmmmm

I believe that the previous Webster show was 500/600 people. I don\'t really know what to say about the attendance. Might just have to wait this one out, I don\'t have a clue why people don\'t come to the shows. Webster Theater isn\'t the best venue either, it\'s in a dumpy part of the city.

FYI I was talking to the barmaid last night and she was happy about the turn-out also while last show @ the webster was sold-out it was a "holiday" so...

Yeah, like I was saying to someone last night. The last few shows at the Webster were Halloween, New Years and a co-bill w/ AGP, so considering that, it seemed like a pretty decent turnout. I\'d say there were more like high 200\'s to low 300\'s like goclic said. It sucks that the bar situation has almost half the crowd as far from the stage as possible, but those that were up front were really getting into it. Definitely a lot of energy down there, and it must\'ve been nice for the band to come home to an excited fanbase.

Well if the bar staff is happy it usually means the turn out is solid. Good to hear that.

maybe the bar staff was happy because the breakfast fans are some SER drinkers, so although there were only a couple hundred there, we did about 500 heads worth of damage.

Good times again. Wah, Gencs, Dave, Mike, Aruny good to see ya. Giavanna, nice to meet you, hope you made it to wherever you ended up deciding to go safely. Theo, good to meet ya, good to see you found you\'re way. The Tim/Adrian trade-off was pretty sweet, I was in awe. Drum solo, BEST ever that I have seen, he was just tearing it up, I could only stand there in awe, grin from ear to ear, jaw dropped and stare in amazement. As previously mentioned, Sean\'s mandolin was barely hearable, but his singing was nothing short of awesome, he nailed Ramble on Rose. Seth, assuming it was you\'re doing behind the lights, awesome job. I was a lucky recipient of a .info bundle, but gave it away to someone else. As for my guesstimate on attendance, maybe there were 200-300 people, but in my opinion it felt more like 100-150. I think thats cos of the amount of people staying up in the bar area and in that middle section, so I didn\'t really grasp a good idea of the total amount. Still am not a big fan of the webster as a whole though, shitty neighborhood, sketchy workers (except the bartenders, they seem alright), $5 beers, and the fact that no matter how many times I\'ve been there I could never find my way out of there and end up getting on the highway over near the clear channel buidling (last night after dropping someone off at UHartford, we missed a turn and drove down one of the scariest streets I have ever been on.).

Sickness...Got my first set opener correct and everything else wrong..but that was definately my first "called" opener....which was a nice personal acheivement....The Webster Theater SUCKS BALLS.....All night all I kept thinking was, "I wish we were at Sully\'s or Porters". Confirmed 1st Breakfast banner thanks to Spacey and crew. I hope that was the first of many.... The Garcian Sandwich was out of control.

Before the show you could see how tired and road weary the boys were. But when they hit the stage it was exactly what i was hoping for and then some.

The Ramble On Rose and Sympathy For The Devil have been played numerous times by the Smokin Boomers. Great to see Seanie up there rocking the **** out of his mandolin...

The whole show was one gigantic highlight. Stand outs in my mind See The Light, Drunk Monk Bar, Born To Be Wild, and the best and most amazing drum solo I have seen to date...I don\'t even remember Buquebus, but I do remember Sympathy....that is strange....

BillyChags and I got so **** lost in New Britan we ended up picking up 84 towards Waterbury>Rt. 8 south....Long night, but so so worth it.....

The attendance was light, but the show was **** heavy....

Thanks to MoeTICA for the late night hospitaly....I hope your roommate wasnt too pissed....

Ulee\'s Gold FOR LIFE!!!!!
